Our Innovative Team

Becky

Rebecca graduated from Kansas State University with a B.A. in Psychology in May of 2010. After working as a Outreach Case Advocate she quickly realized that social work although rewarding it was also emotionally exhausting. Returning to college she was able to tackle her next career, accounting.
In December of 2013, Rebecca completed her Masters in Accounting from the University of Texas and passed the CPA exam in December 2015.
While going to school, Rebecca was working and gaining experience in the field of accounting and taxation. She worked with business owners, set up accounting systems and managed their accounts payables and receivables. In 2014, she was promoted to Senior Accountant and became well versed in complex tax laws around business entities.

I am the owner and CEO of GMLCPA. I spend most of my time on the more complex parts in the accounting and tax areas for small business.
I speak on the topics of accounting and small business. See my speaker bio page.
In between everything that I do I have a wonderful family. We spend lots of weekends at cheer competitions and catching up from the week.

Larisa CooperCPA, Virtual Tax Partner

I coach small businesses and individual clients with all their accounting and tax functions. Whether it’s wrestling with the IRS or making your financials pretty I can help.
I enjoy spending time with my family (which includes a yellow lab and two parakeets), hiking, listening to my favorite radio station, knitting, playing on the piano and baking.

What Others Are Saying…

"It's truly amazing how far ahead of the game GMLCPA is in the financial services industries……. your paperless and electronic processes far exceed where most companies are at"

Jon Row

Gabby and the GMLCPA team have been a solid part of our company for the last 6 years. They are not just our accountants but an integral part of
our team. When we are faced with a problem, we brainstorm and find a solution together. We feel like we have a true partner in GMLCPA.

Tracey Gonzales, Arizona State Radiology

I chose GMLCPA as I begun my new business three years ago. In this time, we have developed a relationship that has strengthened my current business and think of new possibilities for the future. Gabby is a CPA that cares about my success and growth, not only a "number cruncher". The entire team at GMLCPA has been professional and compassionate. I strongly recommend GMLCPA to small business owners looking to enhance their business.

Melodie L. Indigenous Strategies

Having worked with multiple accounting firms in the past, I am blessed to have found GMLCPA. Gabby and her team, Phaedra in particular, is extremely knowledgeable and precise. Thank you for being part of MY team!

"We have known Gabby for many years. I actually interviewed her at one time, then decided to stay with the current CPA. What a mistake! Gabby and her staff at GMLCPA are the best without a doubt. Caring, knowledgeable, and extremely professional."

“I gotta tell you learning the QB online was frustrating as I was used to an older version (and not using it correctly. LOL). Then Phaedra stepped in…wow! She has tremendous patience. No matter how many times I wanted to give up, she would happily encourage me and help me with any roadblock. This is how the whole team has been at GMLCPA. Willing to teach, save me time and money. Hands down THE best!”

Ajo Center for Sustainable Agriculture is a young non-profit, and when we first came to GMLCPA we have no systems in place. The amazing team of GMLCPA listened to our needs, took the time to get to know all of our diverse programs and operations, and guided us through a variety of tax and accounting issues to be to where we are today. The team is very knowledgeable, and quick to respond to any new issues that arise. We feel like we have a great support on our side at all times. Thank you, GMLCPA - we couldn't do what we do without you all!

It's been a pleasure working with Gabby, Larisa and the GMLCPA team. As a small business owner choosing an accounting firm that we could trust to give us good advice and to handle our financial matters in an ethical way was very important to us. We are grateful that you have provided that. Your integrity, knowledge, experience and personality has been something we can count on.
